Terrorist Rocket Reportedly Lands Inside Gaza

Gaza terrorists fired a rocket at Israel on Wednesday but it apparently fell short of its mark, exploding inside the Hamas-enclave of Gaza.

The 'code red' siren was sounded in the Ashkelon Coast Council area. Reports of explosions or damage in Israel have not been received.

The newest rocket attack comes on the heels of an incident Wednesday morning, when terrorists in Gaza shot at IDF soldiers near the Israeli "kibbutz"-type community of Kissufim, close to the security fence with Gaza.

No soldiers were injured from the shots. In response, soldiers fired in the air.

The attack took place near the road leading from Kissufim checkpoint into Gaza, which used to lead to the Jewish community of Gush Katif before the 2005 "Disengagement" expelled all Jews from Gaza.

The day's exchanges come after just last Thursday, Arab snipers in Gaza shot at IDF civilian workers working near the security fence. None were injured in the attack, although engineering equipment was damaged by the gunfire.
